Finished Models



With the controllers attached, tried and tested, the models were ready for animation.

Some of the problems I encountered whilst attaching the controllers and getting them to function correctly was the parenting. For example, for a while I didn't notice that the neck controller wasn't properly attached, and so when the body was posed to lean forwards or backwards, the neck and head remained where they were whilst the rest of the body moved. This obviously wasn't the response I wanted or needed, but it was a simple case of trial and error, parenting and un-parenting controllers with and to one another until they functioned smoothly.

Overall though, there could have been with a few upgrades. The toes in the boots have minimal functionality, for example. But otherwise it functions well for the animation I have in mind.
